Painting pictures with words.
Opening a part of the soul.
Emotion flowing with the lines.
Tapestry skillfully woven.
Reflecting thoughts artfully.
Yearning to make a difference.

Blinded by Truth---By Glenda Frazier--United States

Blinded by Truth

Guided by my own truth

I would stumble and fall daily

Bruised by my blinded decisions

Walking down a path I could not see

Trying to find my own way

I wrote down my daily list

I drank my cup of coffee then off I went

Heading straight into a shadowy ditch

Struggling just to get by

Worn down often I cried

So confused I could not relax

Humble and weak I said to God...

"Not my will but your will to be done"

Meditating on God's Word both day and night

Letting Him guide me through my everyday life

No longer blinded by my own self-righteousness

Trusting in God and him alone

Knowing that God's will for me is written in His Word

I see clearly now following my Masters' plan

Glenda Frazier and her husband Andre reside in Pace,
Florida. She has been writing poetry for over 20 years and has finally
compiled some of them in her most recent book, Poems thatBleed.
She enjoys writing and spending time with her family and friends. God has
instructed her to share her book of poems as an inspirational tool to witness
to the lives of her readers.

Dear Glenda, What an absolutely wonderful poem, with which I can well relate. Learning to let go and let God is not an easy task but so well worth it: the prize peace. Sorry I was such a late bloomer. Better to bloom than not at all I guess.Love, Charlene

Beautiful poem Glenda...Letting go & relinquishing our will to the Lord frees us from making the wrong decisions, & allows Him to order our steps in all situations! The chains of bondage are broken, His will be done! Love your poem. God bless you! Chris~

Hi Christine, I am so glad you enjoyed my poem. You know God is always in control and if we trust in him and lean not upon our own understanding it makes our journey in life go a lot smoother. Blessings...Glenda
